LGBTQ Student Services

LGBTQ Student Services provides programming, advocacy, support, outreach, information and referrals to educate and empower LGBTQA members of Metropolitan State University. We value all women and LGBTQA people, as well as their varied identities and experiences, and seek to create a university-wide climate that supports and advocates for the diverse needs of these communities.

Through advocacy, educational and social programs, LGBTQA support services are designed to enhance the educational experience of all LGBTQ students and their allies at Metropolitan State. The office serves all members of the Metropolitan State community interested in gaining a better understanding of the LGBTQA community.

Lavender Bridge: Metropolitan State’s LGBTQA student organization

Lavender Bridge provides a safe, accepting environment for university students through mutual support and informational social activities. Lavender Bridge is an active organization that offers a variety of opportunities for the university’s LGBTQA students, their friends, families and allies. Join us for:

Ally training

The Metropolitan State LGBTQ ally training program began in spring 1996 and has trained over 200 students, staff and outside community members to be allies to the LGBTQA community. An ally is a person who works toward combating homophobia, biphobia and heterosexism on both a personal and institutional level. Members of the university community who want to become recognized allies attend a three hour workshop and are provided with ally stickers to display in their offices.
